Gr 2-4-When it comes to science, no textbook can replace diving right in and getting your hands dirty. These titles give readers an easy and safe way to do so. Each volume features four chapters, each of which concludes with experiments that offer kids a chance to try out what they've just learned. The design is clear and attractive, and useful sidebars ("Real World Science," "Is It Fair?") provide context for aspiring scientists. © Copyright 2015.
